A/N: Round 2 begins! There will be no recap. It'll be straight into the action!
Also, G09F17R02, it's all good. The spelling was confusing for me so that was what I went with. Different videos/sites(including the Miraculous Wiki used Chat). I'll be sure that it's correct for all the future chapters. Thank you!

"Welcome back everyone! After Shaggy ended the match with an insane finish, with the help of….. what was that kid's name again? Kuroko? Yeah. No idea how he's still able to just go unnoticed like that. Especially after doing that." Chris said.

"Now it's time to start Round 2. Team U and Team Q, to the VR stations." Ego said.
"So we're back at it again huh?" Virgil said.
"It's time for us to hand your team another loss Sparky." Dax said.
"We'll see about that." Virgil said.
The two teams went to the VR Stations to start the first match of the second round.
Round 2
Team U vs Team Q
Altar of Emerald(Sonic Adventure)
Sonic Adventure 1 Unknown From M.E. Plays
The two teams appeared, Team U on the left and Team Q on the right.
The area they were in was a large stone structure that had stairs leading up the structure. There were two levels where the stairs led up. The highest structure had two sone pillars and a green emerald in the middle of it. There was also a sleeping red echidna in front of it. Like the previous Sonic location, there was no way to fall to the bottom of the stage. Only left, right, and upward knockouts were possible.
The areas the two teams appeared was on each side of the alrar on the ground, where there was grass.
"All right guys, all you have to do is not f[censored] this up. That's it. It's that simple." Cartman said.
"I think that's easier said than done." Hawkeye said.
"If it wasn't for the fact that I'm going against you, I'd say I feel bad for you. But in this case? I don't feel any pity whatsoever." Noah said.
"Save the insults for when the game actually starts." Dax said.
"Ready?"
"GO!"
Compared to the first match, Huey started off a lot more aggressive, relentlessly attacking Cartman.
"Jeez dude, who the hell p[censored] you off?" Cartman asked. Which all he got was more attacks from Huey with his katana.
"I said you wouldn't regret picking me. Now, you're gonna see firsthand, more reasons why you won't regret-" Hawkeye started before being hit by a football, right in the cheek. And a dodgeball in the face, both of which hurt Hawkeye as seen by how he reacted to being hit by each.
"There's a simple explanation as to why you got hit." Noah said before pulling out the megaphone. "You talk too much." He said, pushing back Hawkeye even further. But also woke up a certain red Echidna and guardian.
He made his presence known against the fighting teams by jumping into the air and jumping down to the ground, intentionally going down with force to get the two teams attention.
"What's going on here?" Knuckles asked, looking at the two teams, fighting. Huey started to attack him, and he simply blocked the attack with one of his hands and pushed him back.
"Not a wise move. Now I'm going to ask again, what are you all doing here?" Knuckles asked.
"It's a lot to explain. Something that won't matter in the next few minutes honestly." Hawkeye said.
"Try m-" Knuckles said before Cartman was seen trying to get the Master Emerald.
Knuckles jumped back up and knocked him away from the Emerald, causing a decent bit of damage to him in the process.
"So that's it huh? You're trying to steal the Master Emerald?" Knuckles asked.
"No, he's trying to steal it. Not us. What part of virtual did you not get? There's nothing you can do to sell that thing you idiot." Noah said which sent a speech bubble Cartman's way.
"Don't give me that! I can sense the evil within not just one of you, but another!" Knuckles snapped.
Huey attacked him but he simply stopped the attack with his hand and punched him away in the chest.
"I am Knuckles! Guardian of the Master Emerald! I will not allow any of you to use the Emerald for evil!" Knuckles said before putting his two fists together, ready to fight. "Come on!"
"Guardian or not, you're gonna feel this one! Boost! Omni blades!" Dax called out.
Knuckles blocked the blast and threw a punch at Boost. But missed as it had disappeared.
"Huh?" Knuckles said in confusion.
"Over here Knucklehead!" Dax said as it teleported behind Knuckles. He instinctively attacked behind him and missed again as it teleported which caused Dax to laugh as it reappeared and landed a successful hit on the Master Emerald Guardian.
"Darn." Knuckles said, after recovering from the attack.
"That all you got Mr. Guardian?" Dax said.
"If you think that's all I've got you're sadly mistaken!" Knuckles said, already ready to get back into the battle.
"Okay then, let's see it!" Dax said as Boost used its speed to try and confuse Knuckles. Which may have worked. If Knuckles was even trying to follow it with his eyes. Instead, he simply pounded the grounded, causing it to shake, stopping Boost in its tracks and shaking everyone else. Even Dax could feel the power of the ground pound from a distance as he had almost fell.
"Woah. When he said that he meant it." Dax said.
"Great. Now you've made him mad." Static said as he picked up one of the pillars and sent it Hawkeye's way. The problem was Knuckles was the one that punched through the pillar as if it was nothing, stopping it from hitting Knuckles.
"Thanks." Hawkeye said.
"You think I was trying to save you?" Knuckles asked turning around. Hawkeye shot an arrow at him which he punched through. As soon as he did so, gas came out of it which caused him to cough for a bit.
"What is this?" Knuckles said, before starting to feel sleepy.
"You're gonna find out in a few seconds." Hawkeye said.
After a few seconds, he had fallen to the ground, unconscious.
"Can't punch everything idiot." Hawkeye said.
With the echidna taken care of, Hawkeye reentered the battle with the others.
"Hey Mandy," Heather C. started.
Mandy didn't even bother to look her way. "What?"
"Do you know exactly what those two and Virgil were talking about earlier?" Heather C. asked.
"I'll admit, I was curious for a bit, but considering I'm going to eliminate them anyway, I don't care. Besides, why would I tell you anyway? Just because we're on the same team doesn't make us friends." Mandy said before focusing back on the match as Hawkeye just used a gimlet arrow to disorient Noah before Cartman leaped in to finish him off with ninja stars.
Team Q: 1
Cartman: -1
Noah: -2
"Hey, that was my knockout." Hawkeye said.
"Should have been faster." Cartman said before laughing.
"Also, where'd you get the- you know what? Forget it, I probably don't want to know." Hawkeye said.
"Doesn't matter who got it. That's a point for us." Static said as he dodged the sonic blasts from Airswitch.
"Think I can't handle a poor man's Talon?" Static taunted Dax.
"Who said you're just handlin' him?" Dax said before changing to Boost mid-Airswitch Teleport who teleported again.
"Got ya!" Static said, predicting where Boost was gonna teleport, only to get tackled and knocked to the right, causing a ring-out.
Team U: 1
Adam: 1
Virgil: -3
"I thought you said you sucked at football?" Static asked as he stepped off the platform to reappear.
"I do! It's only because of the Virtual Reality stuff, really!" Adam insisted, as the football gear he wore was gone as fast as it appeared.
"Well I guess in your case, it makes you good at stuff you're actually terrible at." Static said.
"Yeah, I guess so." Adam said.
"Come on Mr. 'I don't want to try'." Dan Hibiki said to Noah.
"In your case, I really don't have to try Mr. 'Fraud'." Noah said.
"I'll show you fraud!" Dan Hibiki said, shaking his fist before performing an open palmed strike and when that missed, followed it up with several rapid punches, all of which caused little to no damage whatsoever.
Noah actually tried to punch him and that actually did more damage than expected.
"Wow dude. I actually punched harder than all of your punches. That's sad. That really is." Noah said before his insult knocked him back with Huey finishing him off.
Team U: 2
Huey: 1
"Like I said, when it comes to Dan, I really don't have to try. He'll find a way to mess things up himself." Noah said.
"That kid. He got in the way. I'll get you for that!" Dan said as he reappeared.
Dan Hibiki: -2
"I'm still trying to figure out how exactly you've gotten this far. Oh that's right, you've been on a team that have been able to cover up your screw-ups." Noah taunted, using his megaphone, his insult hitting Static and Cartman in the process.
"Guess what, here you're going to have to carry your own weight, and considering what I saw in the dare challenge, you-" Noah started before being hit by Cartman who was whacked in the face by a baseball bat that was thrown at him with a baseball hitting him in the nuts too.
"I can happily say that I've done everyone here a favor by making him shut the f[censored] up. You're welcome." Cartman said.
"It's not like people are exactly favorable towards you either you know." Noah said, still writhing on the ground in pain. Even though it was VR, that didn't mean it still didn't hurt.
"At least I didn't have to pray to God that Chris let me come back just to get a second chance." Cartman said.
"Is that what you think? I never asked Chris to be back here." Noah said, still on the ground.
"Well then he probably just felt sorry for you then. I mean come on. You were the first one out." Cartman said.
Virgil knocked Adam and Airswitch away by using one another one of the pillars.
"Try being in a full season first. Then we can talk." Noah said.
"You think I give two flying s[censored]s if I did join in the merge? I still get the money if I win." Cartman said.
"It's too bad you're not getting it though." Dax said, attacking him with Bioblaze and freezing him.
Though before anyone for the team can follow up with anything, Virgil sent Bioblaze into a wall before using his fingers to send taser blasts towards it, trapping then used his saucer to send it upwards, knocking it out of the stage.
Team Q: 2
Virgil: -2
Dax: 1
After the game-tying knockout, Knuckles had awakened.
"Had a nice nap?" Dax asked.
"Yeah. So nice that I think all of you should have an even better one! And I'll help out with that!" Knuckles said before going to the Master Emerald. Wielding its power to empower himself, he turns back towards the others who were still fighting.
"No more games!"
Sonic Adventure 2 Unknown From M.E. Plays
He slams into the ground as rocks fall from the sky, one falling above everyone's heads, with everyone having to run to avoid the rocks.
"Take this!" Knuckles sends lightning towards everyone, something that neither team was able to avoid though Static was unaffected.
"Thanks for the boost Knux." Static said before winding back for a punch. But not at knuckles. At Adam.
Adam: 0
Virgil: -1
"MATCH POINT! TEAM Q!"
"So you can absorb lightning huh? Let's see you absorb this!" Knuckles said before running towards him. But his legs were stuck to the ground before he could jump.
"What's… going on?" Knuckles said, trying to get his feet out.
"I call it….. my Static Cling. Like it?"
"No one stops Knuckles' Feet" was heard from the song as Knuckles slammed the ground and broke free of it with brute strength, which left Static in shock before he flew at him faster than he expected and sent him through pillars before he was knocked out of the arena because of how strong the punch was.
"MATCH POINT! TEAM U!"
Virgil: -2
"Who's next?"
Hawkeye points upwards with his arrows and shoots upwards before they rain down on the battlefield. Although they hit everyone else including Cartman which set his a[censored] on fire as he kept repeating after it happened, Knuckles was unaffected.
"Your little circus tricks won't work on me again." Knuckles said.
Hawkeye only smirked as he pointed another arrow, this one being a gimlet with it disorienting Knuckles. He then spun his bow before kicking him in the air. He then followed it up with a rain of arrows on Knuckles. Before falls back to the ground, he freezes him and then shoots another for good measure, following up with another one skywards.
As Knuckles regains his vision, he sees the area right in front of him, but it was too late to do anything to react to it as it exploded right in front of him as Hawkeye turns and rolls back, not even looking at the explosion behind him.
"It's gonna take more than that to beat me." Knuckles said.
"Who said I was done?" Hawkeye said before a giant hand appeared out of nowhere, crushing everyone that was in the area around Knuckles including Cartman and Airswitch, and sending them all upwards.
"GAME!"
"You can thank me and virtual Hank for this win." Hawkeye said confidently.
"TIE GAME!"
Hawkeye: 0(No change due to friendly KO)
"You were saying?" Noah said.
"Aw crap." Hawkeye said as they were brought out of the world.

"A tie game? Interesting. I honestly wasn't expecting one of those to happen. At least not this early." Ego said.
"Hey, Ego? Can I get another team? This one f[censored]ing sucks." Cartman said.
"Considering your own score, I'm not sure if you'd provide any benefit to another team if I were to say yes." Ego said.
"Yeah, that's because they're sucky germs have spread to me too! This dumba[censored] killed me and the other guy!" Cartman said, referring to Hawkeye.
"My bad. Totally my fault there." Hawkeye said genuinely.
"Come on man, please! I'm gonna lose if I continue to be on this team!" Cartman said.
"He already said no. You're just gonna have to deal with it man." Chris said.
Cartman went over and whispered to Mandy. "Hey, hey-"
"Get lost."
"I'll give you candy." Cartman said.
She punched him right in the eye, giving him a black eye, causing him to cry.
"She hit me! Chris! Punish her!"
"I'm not a kindergarten teacher. And considering how you and everyone else your age has acted around here, I don't have to be. Long as she doesn't kill you, I don't care." Chris said.
***Confessional***
Cartman:
"I will get my revenge. Do you hear me? I will get my revenge! Now then, what can I do to make her suffer like I did? Hmm…."
***End Confessional***
"Team T and Team W! To the stations! The next battle is about to begin." Ego said.
"Man, they've been finishing before you guys even get a chance to go in." Adrien said to Marinette.
"Yeah, I've noticed."
Adrien turned towards her. "Hey, there's something's bothering you. I can tell. I won't try to make you talk about it now, but you're my friend. You don't have to keep anything from me. Whatever you have to say, I'm willing to listen."
"I already said I don't want to talk about it now!" Marinette said, but it came out a lot angrier than anyone, including herself expected it to.
"Sorry, I-"
"Hey, it's okay. I understand. Just, whenever you want to talk about it. Alright?" Adrien said. Although he tried to hide it, the fact that she lashed out at him like that not only surprised him, but it hurt his feelings a little too.
"I have to go talk to Dipper, Luz and Virgil about something." Marinette said.
"Sure. Okay." Adrien said as she left to group up with them.
"Hey, you saw how she looked when that came out. I'm sure she didn't mean it." Plagg said, low.
"I know Plagg." Adrien responded before looking back at where she was.
Round 2:
Team T VS Team W
Stage: Hall of Justice- Great Hall Area(Injustice: Gods Among Us)
As the teams appeared in the match, Luz, Dipper, Marinette Virgil had all gotten together to talk.
"Like wow! This is the hall of justice! Well, the virtual one at least. But still! So cool!" Shaggy said, looking around at the statues.
The three sat in front of where one of the cabins were and continued their conversation.
"That doesn't make any sense. They're always on 24/7." Dipper said, referring to the cameras. Virgil had told him that the footage was cut off at some point.
"I'm telling you, that's exactly what I saw. I've got no reason to lie to you man." Virgil said.
"I don't think he's saying you're lying, it just doesn't make any sense." Luz said.
"That's exactly what I'm saying. It's just…. odd." Dipper said.
"Well, we can't think about what we don't have. Let's just think about the things we do know. So when Huey found that mirror there was a bright light that blocked everything on camera." Luz pulled out her phone. "Let's see….. smoke mirror."
The first result was news about the robbery in Paris, which was still considered to be breaking news as a reward for it was now being considered for anyone that returned it to the museum.
"Wait, I remember that. I didn't really pay too much attention to it when I first saw it, but that was there on a news article." Marinette said.
"What if this smoke mirror is what made Huey act weird?" Luz said before tapping on the news article. "It says here that the smoke mirror was used by the Aztec god Tezcatlipoca to vanquish his enemies."
"If that's the case, then he might have been trapped in the mirror. What's it say about him?" Dipper asked.
"Let's find out." Luz said before looking up Tezcatlipoca.
"Look at this." Luz said which caused the other three to want to get a closer look. "Tezcatlipoca's name means smoking mirror."
"Hence where the name comes from." Dipper commented.
"He was the god of night and sorcery, and the patron deity of Aztec kings and young warriors." Luz continued. "According to historical sources, he was a god of light and shadow."
"Light and shadow. That's what the Kuroko guy was saying in the VR game." Virgil noted. "I think it was something like 'I am the shadow to your light'."
"Considering how he's been able to just show up out of nowhere multiple times it makes sense." Luz said.
"You think he's the reason this is happening? Remember, he showed up during the scavenger hunt too." Marinette proposed.
"Let's not make any assumptions. Let's keep reading." Dipper said.
"One of his brothers was Quetzalcoatl. They joined forces to create the surface of the earth but later became enemies in the city of Tollan. Quetzalcoatl is sometimes named the White Tezcatlipoca to his brother's black. While Quetzalcoatl was peaceful, Tezcatlipoca practiced human sacrifice and violence. Because of his brother's and his followers' deception, Quetzalcoatl was exiled from the city." Luz read.
"They're opposites. White and black. Peace and violence. I'm not sure if you paid attention but even Huey's samurai clothes' colors were reversed." Dipper said.
"Which is why Huey has been acting the exact opposite of what he's been like before." Luz said.
"I know I've dealt with things other people might not believe, but this is just out of my league." Virgil said.
"As crazy as it sounds, considering all of the things in Gravity Falls, this is very possible. I just wish I had the journal with me to show you." Dipper said.
"So what do you think? Do you think Tezcatlipoca came out of the mirror and possessed him?" Luz asked.
"I don't think so. He might have just been replaced. Just like Quetzalcoatl was in Tollan. Or in Huey's case, his opposite self that was in the mirror. If that makes sense to you guys." Dipper said.
"But if that's the case, how come that didn't happen to anyone else here?" Marinette asked.
"My guess is you'd have to actually look directly into the mirror for that to happen. In the footage, when he was looking down at it, that was when that bright green light showed up." Virgil said.
"Okay, now that we have something, how exactly do we bring Huey back?" Luz asked. "Well, the good Huey."
"If this is what happened to Huey, probably the easiest solution would be to just get that Huey to look back into the mirror again." Dipper said.
"Bad news though. No mirror." Virgil said.
"And that's the tricky part. We have no idea where the mirror could have gone. Chris sold all of that stuff we found." Dipper said.
"Actually, we do know. The Collector probably has it." Luz said. "Which….. isn't a good thing. If he looks into that mirror, that's going to be bad."
"Wild Cards! It's time to enter the fight!" Ego announced.
"I've got to go." Marinette said.
"Hey, it's totally fine. I've got some stuff I want to get down in my journal about this." Dipper said.
"Wild cards huh? I actually want to see what's going on after what happened with Shaggy the first match. Things must really be getting good." Luz said.
"Same here." Virgil said.
"Since you guys are going to be watching the match, Luz, do you mind if I borrow your phone? I might need it for some more research." Dipper asked.
"Sure! Just please make sure you don't break it." Luz said.
"It's in good hands." Dipper said before fumbling it as she handed it to him.
"Heh. Slightly good hands." Dipper said as Luz gave him a look before doing the "I'm watching you" gesture with her fingers.
As Marinette and Jack Horner entered the fight, Luz and Virgil rejoined he others in spectating the fight.
"Aw man you guys missed it. This fight's crazy!" Dax said.
"Yeah. It's like an anime battle! It's so cool!" Adrien said.
The battle started off pretty slow as the Mystery Inc. trio, moreso Fred and Shaggy were amazed at the Great Hall they were in. Although that was short lived as Superman had dropped down after being told there was a disturbance in the hall. Though from how he was looking to attack and his attitude, this wasn't the boy scout Superman everyone knew and loved. This Superman ruled the Earth with an iron fist, commanding the One Earth Government to reign in superpowered criminals. Although how he treated them was what made him cross the line. If they weren't able to be reeducated or captured peacefully, he killed them, even allying with villains like Sinestro to assist in his rule of Earth.
Using traps and other objects, Fred was able to keep Superman at a safe distance from attacking him, but when it came to the others, not so much. Superman's first knockout being Heather C.
Buying enough time for Shaggy to power up, he attacked Superman with a smash to ground that sent shockwaves across the ground, catching him off guard. Which caused Mandy to promptly power up as well as her hair had the colors of flames as she wore a white gi.
Both had gotten one knockout on an opposing team member, with Shaggy scoring a knockout on Lindsay and Mandy a knockout on Puss. With Superman's additional knockout on Heather C. it was 2-1. Now the two were in a clash, battling each other with each team moreso willing to get out of their respective teammates' way and battle the others than get caught in the crossfire.
Injustice: Gods Among Us- Hall of Justice(Great Hall) OST Plays
"Like is that all you got?" Shaggy said to Mandy as both were surrounded by golden aura.
Mandy simply responded by hitting him where he hurt the most, an energy blast to the stomach.
Superman suddenly flew back down and slammed onto the ground as he did so, with everyone hearing, and feeling the impact.
"Don't think you can get rid of me that easily." Superman said, his eyes red. "I was going to bring you all in on account of trespassing. But now, you're starting to be a problem. In my world, there will be order! And those who defy it. There will be consequences."
Marinette and Jack Horner appeared.
"So there's more of you." Superman said, looking around.
"Oh you don't have to worry about me, I'm not with them." Jack Horner said.
"If there's one thing I don't like, it's liars." Superman said.
Superman started to shoot his searing heat vision across the ground which caused Mandy to have to move out of the way before sending an energy blast his way which he flew around easily. Jack sent fire his way.
"You really think that can stop me?"
"That was the point, yeah." Jack Horner said. "But, that's why I always come prepared." He said before throwing out more toxic apples, hitting everyone including Superman in the process.
"What…. impossible!" Superman said, feeling the damage.
"What happened to the good boy scout?" Mandy asked.
"I still protect the weak. The difference now is….. I'VE STOPPED HOLDING BACK!" He said before flying at a blindingly fast speed right into Mandy as he shot heat vision at her, forcing her to have guard against it.
After several seconds he stopped and turned back towards the others.
"Let her be a warning. Now give up or I'll tear you apart next." Superman warned everyone else.
Superman heard the ground move and he turned back around.
"Back for more huh?"
Mandy flew into him as he shot his heat vision. But it wasn't stopping her advance. She winded back for a punch to his face, but before she could throw another one, he blocked the second with his hands.
"You should have stayed down." Superman said before headbutting her.
"And you should have never stopped being a boy scout." Mandy said before headbutting back. "Personally, this doesn't suit you."
"Like chill out guys and have a sandwich!" Shaggy said before tossing a large sandwich their way, knocking both of them into the air.
"Sure thing! As a matter of fact, I will!" Jack said before picking up a mirror item that fell to the ground, reflecting the sandwich, knocking away Mandy again and sending Superman flying as well.
Shaggy was waiting for the sandwich and was about to eat it before it knocked him upwards, enough for a knockout.
Jack Horner: 1
Shaggy: 3
Marinette went after Fred, though the traps that he set didn't exactly make that easy. She acrobatically flipped over one of the net traps and a log trap.
"I got you now!" Marinette said before Fred had a smile on his face.
A large spring that she was on sent her upwards.
Fred: 1
"It's always the third one that gets 'em." Fred said.
"Man, those were some good moves. They're almost as good as Ladybug's. Almost. She would have dodged that third trap no sweat." Adrien commented.
Shaggy reappeared.
Heather C. hit Jack Horner in the back of the head with a frying pan as he was fighting Puss with his Excalibur sword.
He then spun around, causing Puss to have to jump back to avoid getting hit and Heather to have to duck the rock more than the sword, before getting whacked by it any way on the second spin.
"Ha ha! See? I can do it too!" Jack Horner said to Samurai Jack. "Guess you call me Big Samurai Jack!"
Samurai Jack, unbothered by his comment, attacked Jack Horner and Mandy.
"Ooh, looks like someone's insulted. Did I hurt your feelings? Guess what? I don't care." Jack Horner said, clashing with Samurai Jack. Though when he did, Samurai Jack's determined face, which didn't show too much emotion for Jack Horner to really see did bother him a bit.
"Okay, could you at least show something? Say something? It's kinda creeping me out." Jack Horner said.
"Jack Horner! You sick monster!" Shaggy said, powered up again.
"Thanks for the compliment. Anything else?" Jack Horner said, still clashing with Samurai Jack.
"You turned food against me! Food is supposed to be my friend! So you got two options Mr. Horner! One: You apologize to me and all the sandwiches in the world and we walk away like this never happened. Two: I walk all over your face punk!"
This caused everyone, but Superman to pause after hearing Shaggy say this.
"What?" Jack Horner said, in genuine confusion out of the fact that Shaggy of all people said this which was enough for Puss to jump on his face, kicking him. Samurai Jack then followed up this opening and disarmed Jack Horner.
"Glad I'm not the only one surprised by tha-" Jack Horner said before Superman flew into him like a bullet.
"I don't know what you did to hurt me, but it won't happen again. Ever." He said before his eyes started to turn red.
"Wait, you're actually gonna kill me!?" Jack Horner asked.
Superman grabbed him by the throat with both of his hands.
"Okay. Stupid question." Jack Horner said, losing air before he pulled out a staff and hit him with it a magical blast, causing Superman to drop him.
"Oh man, you look like you're in some pain there buddy." Jack Horner said, standing over him as he was on the ground.
"What….. did you….. do to me?" Superman asked.
"Hit with you with magic, duh." Jack Horner said before realizing something. "That's your weakness isn't it? Well then how about i….." Jack Horner started before pulling out the crossbow. "HIT YOU WITH SOME MORE?" He shoots and hits Superman with the unicorn horn, before he explodes into nothing but confetti, leaving everyone in shock at what he just did, including everyone outside of the game. Not even Mandy could have imagined being able to do something like that to Superman. At least not without Kryptonite. The time even stopped after this. There was 30 seconds remaining.
"What? He threatened to kill me so I killed him first." Jack Horner said. "He should have just shot me with the heat vision and been done with it so it's his fault really."
A woman with a gold gladiator mask and matching armor appeared. Though this armor was Amazonian. She also had a shield, a sword and a lasso. This was Wonder Woman, or in this Earth's case, the Regime version of her.
"Superman, I heard there was-" Wonder Woman started before seeing that he wasn't there.
"Oh, you're looking for that guy. This is him. Like all of it, right here." Jack Horner said, pointing to all of the confetti.
"I'm only going to ask once. Where's Superman?" Wonder Woman asked.
"I just said where he is, he's right there. And over there. And over-" Jack Horner said.
"Enough of your lies." Wonder Woman said before restraining him with her lasso of truth. "Now tell me, where is Superman?"
"I killed him with the crossbow. I had magic, and I figured out that was his weakness so I killed him. And that's him right there." Jack Horner said. "Gotta say, he doesn't seem like too much of a man of steel if his weakness is magic." He added, still speaking his true thoughts while under the influence of the Lasso.
"How dare you!" Wonder Woman said before the Regime's Cyborg along with a Regime Aquaman and Raven also showed up alongside her. Though in Raven's case, her skin was red, a byproduct of Trigon's influence taking over her completely.
"So… we bringing these guys in?" Cyborg asked.
"No. Not a single one leaves this place alive." Wonder Woman said.
Raven goes to fight Marinette and Mandy. While the others split up and fight everyone else. Afterwards, the time restarted again.
"Here, kitty, kitty." Cyborg said, launching blasts from his arm at Puss who dodged them all.
Cyborg had planted a bomb on the ground before sending it Puss' way. Though he acrobatically jumped on it and then off of it right as it exploded in perfect timing. He was about to strike Cyborg but was grabbed by him and then shocked, causing Puss to yell in pain.
Ladybug dodges all of the attacks from Raven with ease before Raven uses her magic to grab her, crushing her very soul as she did so.
"When this is over, you and your friends will have wished you had been given amnesty." Raven said to Marinette.
"Nice! I got one of those! Where'd you steal yours?" Jack Horner asked Aquaman.
"You face the King of Atlantis and you dare mock me?" Aquaman asked, offended.
"It was just a question." Jack Horner said before tossing the trident at Aquaman who ducked it. The trident hit an unsuspecting Lindsay.
Jack Horner: 2
Lindsay: -2(Off-screen KO from Shaggy)
"Not what I was hoping for, but I'll take it." Jack said before he was poked by Aquaman several times with his own trident.
"Now taste the might of a real trident!" Aquaman said before hitting him several times.
"No thanks. I'm more of a sweets guy." Jack Horner said before eating some candy and then disappearing.
"What?" Aquaman said, confused as to how he disappeared.
Heather lined up a croquet shot before hitting Raven with the ball right in her head and then knocking Daphne unconscious.
"Thanks. Wow. Never thought I'd be saying that." Ladybug said to Heather C. before she was whacked away.
Heather C.: 0
"That wasn't to help you. That was just so I could get you myself."
15 seconds remained before Marinette spawned back in.
"I've only got one shot at this." Mariette said before hesitating. "But if I do that, Adrien might found out I'm Ladybug the same way I found out he was Cat Noir!"
"Think Marinette. Find another way without your Lucky Charm." She thought. But that opportunity wouldn't come as she was knocked out by Lindsay, who swung a large mallet she found on the ground as an item.
She also hit Cyborg to free Puss too.
"Thank you. Your assistance is appreciated." Puss said, tipping his hat.
"No biggie. But I'm really sorry about this." Lindsay said.
"Sorry for wha- AHHHHHHHHH!" Puss was launched out of the hall.
"SORRY FOR THAT! YOU TWO MARY! I'M SORRY!"
Team W: 2
Lindsay: 0
Puss: -2
"Like It's not over yet!" Shaggy said before throwing out a flying kick at Lindsay, who yelled in horror as she was about to be hit.
"I couldn't agree more." Mandy said before unleashing a wave of energy. Though Shaggy continued to kick, even at the wave of energy, which ended in a large explosion, knocking everyone back.
"GAME!"
"TIE!"

"Like what just happened out there man? I just kicked and then boom! Everything went white!" Shaggy said.
"It was a tie." Mandy said. "More than likely you got Lindsay the same time I got you. Consider yourself lucky."
"I walk all over your face? Are you feeling okay Shaggy?" Fred asked.
"Actually I'm not. I'm hungry! Which is why I'm so glad this match is over!" Shaggy said.
"Another tie. And two in a row at that. But despite these, the games are very competitive. Round 2 is complete, but considering how the leaderboards are, you shouldn't let up. Round 3 is about to begin. Team T! Team U! Prepare for battle!" Ego said as the leaderboard showed behind him.
Leaderboards:
Team T: 4
Team V: 3
Team U: 1
Team Q: 1
Team W: 1
"Like not again man! I'm hungry!" Shaggy said.
"Three in a row? Man, that's brutal." Luz said.
"Too bad. There ain't gonna be any mercy from me." Dax said.
A/N: Think of this next part as what is seen in TD Montages or even fighting montages in Action Shows like Teen Titans.
And Dax wasn't kidding either. He and the rest of Team U were relentless in their attack, jumping on them in a 2-0 lead in one of the locations used in the Multiverse Edition special, Mute City. Though Puss and Jack were able to score knockouts and tie the game at 2-2. Huey finished the game himself, not wanting to give the opposing team any life and score 2 consecutive knockouts, ending the game at 4-2.

Huey: 2

"I gotta say Marinette, those were some nice moves out there. I'm impressed." Adrien said.
"Yeah, thanks." Marinette said.
"Hey, don't get too down on yourself. You'll get better." Adrien said.
"Team V! Team W!" Ego called out, which caused Dipper to rejoin the rest of his team.
"Hey. Did you find anything else interesting?" Luz asked as Dipper handed her her phone back.
"Just a couple of interesting stuff I found interesting. But, I do have an idea on what happened during that sudden interruption. I'll tell you after the game." Dipper said.
"Let's get another win guys!" Falcon said.
"Right." Adrien said, excited to jump back in.
Marinette sighed as the two teams went into the game.
***Confessional***
Marinette:
"I'm really stuck in a rock and a hard place. If I don't do something I'm going to be eliminated. I'm falling behind and Jack already has two knockouts. But if I do go all out, Adrien could find out I'm Ladybug! What do I do?"
***End Confessional***
Though in this case, there was nothing she could do. Mandy had come out with a vengeance and used her powers too the fullest extent, singlehandedly getting three knockouts herself with the last one coming from Fred who tossed a surprised Falcon off the battlefield, which in this case was a rooftop from the first Killer Instinct video game. Though unlike Cinder's in the VR challenge, this one was at night, indicating that this was the secret agent Orchid's stage.
The game ended 4-1 with Team V's only knockout being Adrien vaulting forward to knock Fred off.
Fred: 1
Mandy: 5
Adrien/Cat Noir: 1
Luz: -2
Dipper: 0
Falcon: 1

"Was that the VR or are you really that strong?" Falcon asked Fred.
"I can bench 220." Fred said.
"Whichever it is, not bad. You really did a number on us." Falcon said.
"We may have won but you guys still have a great team too. Good game." Fred said.
"Round 4 Begins!" Ego announced.
It was Team V vs Team T. Their battlefield being Kami's lookout, which was an ancient platform that was in the skies of the Earth, making it possible to fall off if pushed off too far. But unlike their previous match, the team was more prepared to deal with Shaggy. Though it wasn't by any means a non-competitive game, they were able to prevent Shaggy from powering up. Though Jack was a different story.
"You forget. It is a team of 4, not 1." Jack said, using Falcon's own words before slicing through them all with a quick strike as his hair was now let down, no longer tied and singlehandedly knocking out both Falcon and Dipper.
Puss, working together with his team, scored a knockout as well, knocking out Luz.
Though it was Luz that redeemed herself and scored the final knockout to allow her team to win 4-3, with everyone on Team V scoring a knockout. The Wild Cards entered, but their stay was short lived with Marinette scoring a knockout on Shaggy with her yo-yo as he tried powering up away from the battlefield. The problem was that he was too high and Marinette used this to her advantage to knock Shaggy into the sky.
As for Puss, he also got the best of Jack Horner the second time around, scoring a knockout on him along with Shaggy getting his revenge against him as well.

Team W vs Team Q went a similar route in terms of results. Although it was close, Team W came out the victor. Jack Horner was also able to land a knockout on Mandy via his crossbow as she was fighting Cartman.
Though Cartman, in a fit of rage that Jack Horner stopped him from knocking out Mandy himself, beat the "fata[censored]'s a[censored]."
"OH MY F[CENSORED]ING GOD F[CENSORED] THIS TEAM!" Cartman yelled out as he left the VR station.
"You realize it was your fault we lost right?" Virgil asked.
Flashback to match
"Die you stupid b[censored]! You will respect my authoritaah!" Cartman said, baton in hand, hitting Mandy with it. Though she retaliated by picking him up and sending an energy blast right into his chest, sending him into the stars.
As she had her eyes closed, she straightened out her gi.
End Flashaback
"Suck my balls okay! Suck…. Mah…. Balls!" Cartman said.
"And you died twice." Hawkeye said.
"SUCK MAH BALLS GODDAMNIT!"
***Confessional***
Cartman:
"Holy f[censored]ing s[censored]! You guys don't get it! This team f[censored]ing sucks! It fucking sucks balls!"

"The final round is about to begin! Prepare to head to the stations!" Ego called out.
"Guys bad news." Dipper said, running to where Luz, Virgil and Marinette were.
"More bad news to pile on to the fact that I'm running out of time?" Marinette thought.
"What's going on?" Virgil asked.
Heather tried to inch her way close enough without raising suspicion to hear what they were talking about. Though she was bumped into by Lindsay.
"Lindsay! Watch it!" Heather C. said, which caused the three to look up at what was happening.
"Sorry!" Lindsay said.
***Confessional***
Lindsay:
"I don't know what they're talking about, but I think if they wanted to let Heather know about it, they'd tell her. It's their business. Besides, they don't seem like the type of people to want to hide anything bad."
***End Confessional***
They went to where the journal was, which was inside the cabin that Dipper was in. Heather C. went towards the confessional.
"And it's pretty much perfect too. If it wasn't for the fact that I remembered that I took notes, you would have thought the pages were never there." Dipper said, referring to the missing pages in his journal.
"That's insane. Almost no mistakes in the tears whatsoever?" Luz said.
"Don't think these were torn. They were probably cut." Marinette said.
"You think Huey did this?" Luz asked.
"Or it could have been Mandy. She said she wanted to help me out. It might have all been a ruse." Virgil said.
"We won't know unless we look at the footage." Luz said.
"A second time? I really don't know about this." Marinette said.
Virgil saw a shadow in the cabin window and immediately went outside. There was no one there.
"Something wrong?" Dipper asked.
"Thought I saw something. Mind must be playin' tricks on me." Virgil said.
Heather C was under the cabin and crawled from under it, a wicked grin on her face.
***Confessional***
Heather C.:
"That's interesting. A second time? I could have sworn Chris said no. It'd be a shame if he found out." She said, smiling.
***End Confessional***
"Although it would be helpful, we don't need to do it a second time. I still remember everything and can give you guys the gist of what I came up with." Dipper said. "Even though it still sucks I don't have the notes."
"Hey Chris." Heather C. started, trying to get his attention.
"Yep? What's up?"
"Team U! Team W! Prepare for battle!" Ego announced.
"Looks like it'll have to wait. Good luck." Chris said.
While Mandy nor Huey eyed each other, they both acknowledged each other's presence before they got to the VR stations.
"And the final round begins! Two more matches remain! Who will survive? And who will fall? Stay tuned on Total…. Drama…. Island! Multiverse Edition!"
